Secretarial Services in India
Helping you navigate the complexity of managing entities and ensuring they remain in good standing
SBC's Tailored Secretarial Services for Corporate Excellence.
To begin, the word company implies one of the forms of business entity. The company is an artificial judicial person, and a separate statute monitors the companies. The earlier Companies Act, 1956, was replaced with the Act, 2013. The Companies Act, 2013 has substantially altered the corporate regulatory framework by bringing in changes with far-reaching implications.
As a seasoned Corporate Secretarial Services provider, we provide compliance and advisory services for Company Law matters, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) matters, other Corporate Laws (including representation before the Registrar of Companies and other authorities), and various commercial and legal document types.
